According to the description provided by the producers, it's a blacksploitation road movie about an extraordinary girl. Her unlikely companions, the closest thing she has to a proper family, are an ex detective ala Dirty Harry of Polish origins and a bodasious woman with an abundant afro haircut who makes her living of larceny.
